The SelCal (Selective Calling) code is that carried by an aircraft for communications on HF (high frequency) wavelengths for very long range. Trackers such as SBS-1 and Radarbox onwards use an external database to decode the Hex code into a current registration. The Hexadecimal (6 character) unique code carried by an aircraft for ModeS / ADS-B (Automatic Dependent Surveillance–Broadcast) identification on aircraft tracking systems. Heathrow LHR EGLLĪ note on the Operator added by an Editor. If given, the aircraft’s base together with its 3-letter IATA code and 4-letter ICAO code e.g. a military aircraft is given priority for a customer with an acute operational need.Ĭurrent Registration date with current owner/operator. Note, however, that the order in which a specific aircraft is built can be changed while retaining its Line No. 37 denotes the 37th aircraft built of the specific model. The order in which an aircraft is built on the production line e.g.

This is discussed below.Ĭonstruction Number (c/n) or Manufacturer’s Serial Number (MSN) – the unique identifier number for the aircraft carried from factory build through its operational life to eventual scrappage. If you click on this the basic aircraft information page is presented. The rule adopted is that they are listed under their BAPC number, except where a frame still carries a current civil registration, this is used and the BAPC number is shown under ‘Other Marks’. In the message main text, please give as much information as you can and the information source.Īircraft with BAPC (British Aviation Preservation Council) numbers – the BAPC is now known as Aviation Heritage UK or AHUK – are entered in the format ‘BAPC.123’ for consistency.

#PLANEPLOTTER PRIVATE PLANES UPDATE#

Request an aircraft update for a new registration, or a new aircraft addition on the Forum at stating in the message title which of these it is together with the registration and aircraft type so that the appropriate Editor will pick it up and action it.

Once the full registration is available, this is updated.ĭo a search on the c/n if you know what it is Note that when an aircraft is exported, initially only the country it is exported to is often known so an Editor will only input the country prefix. The airframe is probably in the database but without the partial or full registration. Try searching on part of the registration using the ? and * characters. Beware registrations with or without hyphens: these can cause problems for Latin American countries and military serials. The number of Frames and number of them logged is also shown – this is useful where the registration has been applied across a number of different aircraft.Ĭheck that the registration is in the correct format. Therefore, if only F is shown, you logged the airframe under a previous registration.Īn extremely useful visual indication of F and R is shown by the whole line being highlighted in green if you have seen the aircraft with its current registration on, or in yellow if you have only seen it with a previous registration on. R signifies that you have logged it under its current (now) registration. This will change if the aircraft’s registration is changed.į signifies that you have logged the airframe. The Hex code is the code used by tracking systems and which uniquely identifies a registration. many airliners are owned by leasing companies, some airline services are flown by other companies on their behalf. Note that the Operator, not the owner, is shown – these can differ e.g.

This shows the Registration, Type, Construction Number (C/N), Operator and Hex (Hexadecimal) Code. If it is found, the top line is displayed G-AB* will fetch all from G-ABAA to G-ABZZ. * is for single or multiple wildcard characters e.g. For example G-ABC? will fetch G-ABCA, G-ABCB, etc. ? is for a single wildcard character, ? for two etc. Note that you can use wildcards (? or *) in Current/Historic Reg and Con No searches. You have the option of using the TAB key or selecting GO to run a search. Note that the screenshots may also show extra lines and facilities that are only used by Editors to input new and updated information.
